What proof is there that god is not here?

Answer 1

Regardless of how crazy this may seem, there is absolutely no proof that religion is false. but even I have these doubts sometimes. 1. The afterlife- people from around the world tell stories of dying and seeing the Holy Lord and feeling His love 2. The Bible- the Bible has alot of chapters written by different people, who all seemed to know what they're talking about and are similar. Its also relevant to world events. 3. Miracles- not only are there miracles being shared about in the Bible, but everyday someone, somewhere gets their life saved (cancer patients) 4. Creation-scientists say that evolution is the answer, but you can't change DNA and our DNA is different from apes. 5. The most important...Jesus- His birth was predicted thousands of years ago, He was an actual person dying on a cross, and the things the Bible says He quoted are true. God forgives you for doubting His existence, you don't even need to read the Bible or go to Church. Just simply believe and confess.

AnswerIt is very hard, in any instance, to prove that something does not exist. To prove something doesn't exist, you must either search everything or everywhere and find no evidence of the existence of the item you are trying to prove doesn't exist. The only other way is to prove that something else does exist and because this does exist, the thing you are trying to prove doesn't exist due to it being impossible for both items to exist.

What I'm trying to say is that it's extremely hard to disprove the existence of God because we can't search the entire universe and all of its dimensions. However, as a compromise, we can use the second method to an extent. Discoveries such as the big bang theory and evolution, whilst not disproving the existence of a God, do bypass the requirement for there to be one. Once the very beginning of the big bang has been discovered, it may well disprove God even further by proving that no intelligent life form is required to have started it.

To look at it from another angle, one can try and apply logic to the question. An example would be who created god?, why would he create the universe?, where is he?, in what form does he exist? e.t.c. These are all valid questions that simply cannot be answered, so many people chose to believe that there is no god as the need for his existence is not there and there are many unexplainable things about him.

Christians however, will take the fact that god's non-existence has not been fully proven as evidence that he does exist which is a non-scientific approach. You can't apply this same logic to other instances, for example, if I said that there is a huge dragon in the centre of the Earth but has the same properties as rock, this cannot be fully dis-proven as no-one has been to the centre of the Earth, but this lack of evidence can't then be used to prove the existence of the dragon but in Christianity, lack of evidence is somehow taken as evidence.

The final way that many believe there is no god is that there is not enough evidence to prove his existence, almost like the above except there is less evidence for a god.
